About this eBook
A minister’s wife is determined to find out who’s preying on the residents of a New England retirement home in this acclaimed cozy mystery series.
Minister’s wife, sometime sleuth, and culinary artist Faith Sibley Fairchild is intrigued by rumors of mysterious doings at Hubbard House—an elegant, secluded retirement home for the well-heeled Yankees of Aleford, Massachusetts. Determined to do some surreptitious snooping, she joins the pricey retreat’s flu-depleted kitchen staff, only to witness an aging resident collapse face-first into a bowl of Faith’s hot and savory bouillon.
Faith barely has time to ponder the suspicious death before a blackmailing drug dealer turns up dead in her bedroom! Now one thing is clear to the amateur investigator: murder doesn’t just happen at Hubbard—it’s the house specialty. And Faith’s own demise might very well be the next item on the menu.
